Dec. 22, 2022 – “When women are substance abusers or alcoholics, you lose not only that woman, but you lose that generation of her children,” Fox said. “And I feel very strongly that when women get in touch with their maternal instincts, they can really push through and stay sober.”
Fox battled with substance use disorder throughout the 1960s and 1970s. Addiction was very poorly understood at the time, and often blamed on moral failure as opposed to chemical dependence. “I had been in and out of psychiatric hospitals back in the day, before there were rehabs or programs,” Fox explained. “You were considered mentally ill, and you would be put in a psychiatric facility. I went through like four or five of them.”
Fox received help while living with a therapeutic community in midtown in the city for a year, where she was able to overcome her addiction. From 1995 to 2011 she lived in Sea Cliff with her two daughters before moving to Boca Raton, Florida for five years.
